Hi all!
As part of the VAMOS[0] research project at the University of
Erlangen we're checking referential integrity between kernel KConfig
options and in-code Conditional blocks.
While there's one place that is checking for CONFIG_AHCI, this
config being referenced from printed books and people pointing to this
config item I can't find it anywhere in the kernel kconfig
infrastruture and it doesn't seem to ever have been there (since
git). Is this maybe a typo for CONFIG_SATA_AHCI? reading the
information for the affected piece of source it would actually make
sense.
Please keep me informed of this patch getting confirmed /
merged so we can keep track of it.
Regards
Christoph Egger

Subject: [PATCH] CONFIG_AHCI is really CONFIG_SATA_AHCI
The marvell driver comtains a fallback to ahci for the sata ports
which is incorrectly checked as CONFIG_AHCI while the only AHCI config
item is actually called SATA_AHCI (which also sounds sensible
considering it's a fallback for the sata ports).
